I was invited for a telephone interview following a quick online application form. I was emailed detailing the time for the interview to take place, however the recruiter never rang in the 1 hour window that was stated. I followed this up, and rearranged for the next day. The recruiter did ring this time, however the call was later than the stated time. Not a good first impression. The phone interview was very informal, and lasted around 10 minutes.

The emphasis on working 50+ hours a week for £20,000 a year does not reflect the stress and pressure placed on the current trainees.

I didn't apply for a graduate role to spend half of my time driving.
